networking wireless to lan

[Tom C]

I have a windows xp pro and win 98 computers on a lan network. I recently
purchased a Dlink wireless router to connect my laptop to the network.
All three computers are on the web, all three can get to the Internet.
However, the 2 lan line computers can see each other (One is XP Pro and one
is 98) but i cant get the wireless laptop to see the lan line computers.
Is there a web site that explains how to get these three systems to see each
other? I want to be able to share files between the three.?
Thanks for the help....tcoop

Tom,

You have a wireless LAN, and you have Windows 98 and XP mixed. Both give the
potential for browser conflicts.

If you have a wireless LAN, you should have a personal firewall on each
computer, but personal firewalls have to be setup properly.

If those don't help, check this general list.
